From Schott's Food & Drink Miscellany and credited to Thomas Nash in 1592:
The Ape-drunk, who leaps and sings and hollers
The Lion-drunk, who is quarrelsome and rude
The Swine-drunk, who is sleepy and lumpish
The Sheep-drunk, wise in his own conceit, but unable to speak
The Maudlin-drunk, who declares he loves all mankind
The Martin-drunk, who drinks himself sober again
The Goat-drunk, who is lascivious
The Fox-drunk, who is crafty, like the Dutch who bargain when drunk
So, which one are you?
